Hi Friends -On Wednesday I, along with Lionsgate, Women in Film, Facebook and
Tongal, announced an exciting new project: “The Storytellers – New
Creative Voices of The Twilight Saga” (or if you’re following the
hashtags on social media: #TwilightStories for short.) We are teaming up
to find five aspiring female filmmakers to create short films based on a
broad spectrum of characters from the Twilight universe.We’re excited to have Twilight fans participate in a variety of
ways; I’m looking forward to finding out which characters you’re most
interested in. If you want to refresh your memories on their stories,
they’re located in the Twilight Official Guide. Which do you think are
the most cinematic?One thrilling part of the project is the amazing group of ladies
teaming with me to mentor these aspiring filmmakers: actress Kristen
Stewart, Academy Award winners Kate Winslet and Octavia Spencer,
Jennifer Lee, the award-winning writer and one of the directors of
Disney’s global blockbuster Frozen, Twilight director Catherine
Hardwicke, Emmy Award-winning actress Julie Bowen, and Women In Film
President Cathy Schulman. All of these women have dedicated their
careers to getting female voices on the big and small screen. It’s
something that I care about passionately, and it’s truly a great honor
to be able to participate in a project that will help discover new
female voices.There will be much more and I look forward to sharing all the
details of how you can be involved in the coming days ahead. I’ll be
sharing most of the updates through Fickle Fish Films (my production
Company) website and social media accounts so make sure you’re following
